So, Novell has sold out. I don't see how this makes good business sense in
the long term, except perhaps for Red Hat. You don't make deals with
Microsoft, because they'll find a way to to weasel out of it. Novell, of
all companies, should understand this well. Are memories so fscking short?
This is now the second time that a distribution and the company behind
has sold us down the river. The first time it was OpenLinux and Caldera. Now
it is SLES/SLED/openSUSE and Novell.
I'm sure it is only coincidence that both companies are Utah companies.
Strictly speaking, Novell is headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts.
Begrudgingly, Red Hat and Fedora have another customer.
